Anyone for WoW?

[NJFemmie]

Yay! We're back online and I think I am finding out that my warrior is no longer able to shoot crossbows and such. On the upside, I am in the process of my pet battles (kinda weird, but ok)... and I am getting used to the new interfaces.

I know there was a place that told you what your toon can do, i.e. shoot, etc... can't seem to find that anymore.

We plan on slowly working our way back since we have to get used to playing again - but anyone on A52 (Horde players) please feel free to add me - Lilybit.

They got more literal for weapons. As a hunter I can only use crossbows/bows/guns. No staves anymore. I used to have a cool one. I finally got back to LFR (gave up on PVP for this exp but might use one of my alt hunters for that). I still need to get my rogue and ally character to 90 (a task I'm not looking forward to doing).

What I do like is that Raids are now soloable (good for getting those old raids done)

Good to know about the raids.

I just started a pandaran monk - SHOOSHIE. (Feel free to add)
Very different playing style, but I'm getting the hang of it. I am working her to do damage. I am conflicted between tank or damage, but I chose damage for now. I also just made my way to Org with her. HORDE BABY!!

My 85 warrior is sitting in the Jade Forest - it does not look easy to level up. It seems like it's going to be a long and tedious journey - but Mare and I have been having fun reacquainting ourselves with our toons.

I decided to take my monk into Arathi Basin. Wow, I got my panda ass handed to me. I miss my warrior. I might start a new panda warrior toon when Mare decides She wants to start Her own panda (probably going to be a rogue, She loves being "sneaky").

My WW monk is now a level 16. Even though it is a relatively easy toon to play, managing chi for optimum use is a bit tedious. So, maybe it's not that easy. I've tried playing other classes, but I seem to gravitate toward warriors. I'm not fond of leather or cloth wearers since they seem to die too easily for my taste - which is why I abandoned my mage and druid. I like mano-a-mano fighting - ranged fighters are a bit tough for me to grasp a handle on. I still have my hunter though - and am considering leveling her up if I don't get too into this panda thing.

The pet battles are interesting - and I love the fact that all toons share it. I snagged a little cub in the Barrens (appropriately named it Fangula). I know it's a common pet, but it's adorable and I felt bad for killing its momma. Now the little puss follows me around everywhere - he makes me smile. LOL, ugh. (God help me...)

Well, I did notice that A52 is not as friendly as I remember. The snarky remarks in trade never used to be so obnoxious. Trade chat has always been notorious for bullshit and trolling - but I did notice it got worse. Whatever. I rarely pay that much attention to it anyway.

I was happy to find that my guild didn't drop me considering we haven't been on for months. I would have been really disappointed if I lost my perks. They dropped one of my lowbies, but ehhhh - I use them as AH lackies anyway. I joined Soul Asylum when we transferred over and like them so far.

So Mare and I decided we were bored with dailies and that of the like and wanted something different. She took the leap and started a worgen toon (ack). As much as I really don't like the idea of being Alliance, I'm actually having a bit of fun with the change of scenery. (That was up until we had to attack Lady Sylvanas and our hearts started to ache... our very first toons were undead and allegiances run strong through our veins, lol).

I'm hoping the next patch will provide a bit more variety. We finally exalted with Klaxxi (and a few others) and I thought that would never end. :/ I've heard that grinding valor points are going to be easier and I hope so. I've never been much for daily quests, so this has been quite the challenge.

What is everyone else up to in the game?

I'm trying to get my Tauren Hunter entirely into Epic gear. So this has meant doing a few of the dailies as well as trying to get into raids and the like. I still have Nat to finish off (geez.. worst. drop. rate. evah.) and then want to work on another hunter that I think I'd use nearly exclusively in PVP.

Yeah, Nat is a pain in the ass to level. I thought maxing out fishing meant you didn't catch crap?

I managed to get a few epic items, but the grind is killing me. I'm thinking of holding off because the new ilevel is supposed to jump to 522? Ugh. Last year I managed to get my hands on some awesome gear (for my then level 85) - and I didn't even get to use most of it since it was rendered useless with the new expansion.
